So I warned my neighbor downstairs to stop using the piratebay with my connection or I'd cut her off, and now I'm changing my password.
I got my 3RD FUCKING PIRACY NOTICE because of her when I've never got any.
My main issue is I read my email and they're STILL injecting that pop up into my browser sometimes, is there any way to stop this YOU PIRATED THIS IS A WARNING BLAH BLAH pop up?
>>54725366
that's a virus you fucking retard.
Why are you sharing with your neighbor? Is she paying half or something?
>>54725380
No it's not you retarded faggot, Comcast directly injects a pop up into your web pages when they get a notice.
Literally google it.
>>54725405
She was paying money towards it yes, I warned her and she didn't listen.

What makes a reliable computer?
I've heard Think-pads are quite reliable and i have read these four articles by Puget:

mostly luck.
I've had multi-$k, enterprise-backed servers at my office fail for no reason 5% into their expected lifetime.
I also have a plastic shit core2duo HP laptop that has been running nearly 24/7 since 2008 and never had a single issue or hardware failure.

I've collected old shit for almost a decade now and even the shitboxes can last a long time, most common causes of death are mistreatment, shitty capacitors and heat
Just bought and set up a web server. Don't know what to do with it yet. Any ideas?
For now, upload some images to it: uploads.hit.to/
Would anybody be interested in buying a cheap hosting package?
did i waste my money
Had a few uploads, good to know that people can connect and use it.
What is the speed like to people who are uploading? It uploads almost instantly for me but I am in the same room as the server..
I just spent the last 2 weeks installing Arch Linux. I'm not even fucking joking. The install process is just the most convoluted and confusing fucking procedure ever. I followed the beginner's guide many times. It wouldn't be a problem if the fucking guide actually explained to me in plain English WHAT THE FUCK the commands even. Then maybe I wouldn't have made so many typos due to mindlessly copying commands straight from the page.
It wasn't even the typos that set me back the most, it was that it kept asking me fucking edit files. How the fuck...

I was watching some shitty spy movies and I got to thinking about the surveillance technology they often use in these movies, like hiding a camera in someone's hotel room.
What kind of technology do governments actually use to spy on people?
We've all heard of microphones hidden under lampshades, but how long of a battery life can they have while still being so small and discrete?
I guess you could just stick a microphone to a D-battery, an IR transceiver and a paperclip and call it a day. Do governments just drill a hole in the wall and feed a camera on a...

They put transmitter in cats and send them to the Russians.
I guess they could use these government-accessible internet-connected microphones that everyone carries in their pockets nowadays. Just an idea.
How does one find the 'hidden' cameras
is a good buy for 400 euro?

This phone is a big meme on Android sites

>>54724640
The overheating is a meme. Ive never experienced it, though i only use it to browse social media/internet and general music player.
>>54724663
For the first droid turbo the overheating is not a meme, as my phone is burning up while typing this

So what happened to Tox, do people still use it? I wanted to try it out to see what changed since the last time I used it, what fork should I try? what do you recommend/use?
>>54724380
I wanted to try it too, seems to be a good alternative to skype botnet but unfortunately, noone uses it :'(
>>54724412
i see that they added screen sharing, i think that will make my friends change to it. we mainly use skype for group chat and screensharing.
does qTox have screensharing it doesnt say on their github?

Why are there so many indians in tech today?
(Please no pajeet posting.)
>>54724287
>>>/b/
I think it's as simple as India is a poor country without the level of internal industry that China has, so like nogs and rap tech is just seen to pajeets as the way to get out.
When /g/ talks about pajeets taking over, they're really talking about being outdone by superior work ethics that anybody could replicate, but MOM-BRING-ME-TENDIES /g/tards can't really picture hard work so must be those wily pajeets and their natural affinity for tech (As if indians aren't a nasty and foolish people who just happen to trying harder)
There's so many Indians and they leave for better opportunity since India is a literal shit hole
Im tired of firefox being slow as a turtle. Brave is too barebones for me to use, in vivaldi you cant place a link onto the tab bar and open it, chrome is too ugly.
Any other browser left that I can use?
>>54724249
Chrome is beautiful, the problem is the goddamn ram
Have you tried Chromium, Safari, Opera, or any others?
>>54724265
tried opera, it was slow too. I love my firefox css, is there a way I can use that on chrome? e;g minimal tab bar
seamonkey, qupzilla, maxthon
My dream is to have a drum set but livin in an apartment makes that tricky
Id love a kit like pic related but that shit cost gwap
Would it make sense to try and frankenstine a kit, starting with lets say the cheaper TD-1 and then buying some PD-85's for that mesh and eventually upgrading to a better module?
Or shud i just save up?
>>54724173
Stop living in an apartment. If you have a decent job, get a mortgage. Then worry about drumset. As it stands, you'll disrupt your neighbours, and be kicked out
>>54724207
The sound of sticks hitting pads is nowhere near loud enough to get me kicked out, i can just have music playing the bacground to drown it out
>dont buy a drum set, get a mortgage
Anyone else wanna try and give me even worse advice?
Get an actual drum kit and some mute pads.
